Selection rules for multiphoton excitations in a qubit-resonator systemThomas Niemczyk1, •Frank Deppe1,2, Hans Huebl1, Edwin Menzel1, Fredrik Hocke1, Elisabeth Hoffmann1,2, Manuel Schwarz1, Achim Marx1, and Rudolf Gross1,21Walther-Meissner-Institut, Bayerische Akademie der Wissenschaften, 85748 Garching, Germany — 2Physik Department E23, Technische Universität München, 85748 Garching, Germany

The theoretical analysis of a qubit-resonator system reveals selection rules at certain symmetry points of the qubit. In the case of a superconducting flux qubit, this symmetry of the double-well potential can be broken in a controlled way by changing the external magnetic field. Only then, odd and even multiphoton processes can coexist at the same flux bias. We illustrate this phenomenon with spectroscopy measurements of a superconducting flux qubit strongly coupled to an onchip coplanar waveguide resonator. Our studies extend up to three-photon driving and clearly show the transition from strict selection rules to a regime of coexistent multiphoton excitations.
